Hwy 325 (Moodyville Rd/Red Hill Rd) to S Ford Rd / Hwy 111

The Wolf River begins at the base of the Cumberland Plateau and flows westward through the Highland Rim in Byrdstown/Pickett County (Dale Hollow Lake). This Class II run offers plenty of variety with numerous riverside waterfalls/cascading tributaries, small bedrock ledges/slides, wave trains, abundant wildlife and scenic gorge walls. The first 2 miles are relatively flat but very scenic (great time to work on strokes/basics/etc.); use the alternate put-in to skip the initial flatwater section. The river is populated by private homes/properties and farmland; please be very respectful, quiet and courteous (drive slowly/no changing in public/no trash/etc.).
